Coollaboratory Liquid MetalPad for AMD & Intel CPUs

The Coollaboratory Liquid MetalPad ist the first heat conduction pad, which is composed of 100% metal and melts with just less heating (BurnIn-process), then it confects its superior heat transfer. It dissipates the heat fast and efficiently and doesn't have to hide from the best heat conduction paste. The simple, clean and fast installation turns the Liquid MetalPad into the ultimate heat conduction medium for HighEnd PCs. The Liquid MetalPad can be used with all heatsink and waterblock materials, for instance aluminum or copper. It doesn't age and doesn't have to be freshened up/replaced every few months. The Coollaboratory Liquid MetalPad is RoHS compliant and nontoxic.



The Coollaboratory Liquid MetalPad is delivered in a transparent blister-package and contains one Liquid MetalPad. Additionally there is a detailed printed manual included and according to the product variant a cleaning set for removal / cleaning of the contact area before and after using the Liquid MetalPad.

The pad is 38 x 38 millimeters and is suitable for any of today's modern processors. Coollaboratory provides a template to allow for trimming the pad to suit your processor's size.

Your thoughts and opinions and feedback please... please exclude any flaming posts about the brand behind the TIM and just make your posts constructive criticism if any.

From the new revision I can see that they changed/added these things:

• Now supports aluminum HeatSinks or Waterblocks

• No longer hardens up and sticks to your Heatsink causing you to use extreme measures to remove the TIM from super-attaching itself to the heatsink and CPU/GPU

• Only the padding version of the TIM has been revised

• Residue left behind from removal of the pad will be beneficial for other pastes per the instructions of the revised metal pad.

EDIT: oh almost forgot one of the important ones:

• New revision padding no longer looks and feels like a sponge whereas the old did
